With a refrigeration dryer from Nordic Filtration, you have the option of removing water from the compressed air - right down to the safe dew point that is specified in advance. The compressed air will be both warm and moist when it is fed in through the refrigeration dryer. Here, a heat exchanger and a cooling system will cool the air down to a dew point of 3°C.
You often see a refrigeration dryer used in various types of production, to avoid expensive and unnecessary downtime.
A refrigerated dryer, also known as an air dryer, is a device used to remove moisture from the airflow by cooling it to a temperature where water vapor condenses and can be removed. The purpose of using a refrigerated dryer is to achieve dry, clean air, which is crucial in many industries and applications for various reasons:
Equipment protection: Air containing moisture can be harmful to sensitive equipment such as electronics, pneumatics, and measuring instruments. Moisture can cause corrosion, short circuits, and other damages, resulting in expensive repairs or replacements.
Extension of machine lifespan: By removing moisture from the air used to operate machines, one can extend the lifespan of these machines. Moisture can cause rust and corrosion in mechanical parts, leading to frequent breakdowns and unnecessary costs.
Improvement of product quality: In production environments where air quality is important for product integrity, a refrigerated dryer can ensure that the air used in the process is clean and free from moisture. This can prevent defects or deterioration of products and ensure consistent quality standards.
Ensuring process efficiency: In many industrial processes, it is crucial to closely control humidity to ensure that the process operates optimally. A refrigerated dryer provides precise control over humidity, contributing to maintaining efficiency and consistency in the process.
Enhancement of compressed air quality: In applications that use compressed air, such as pneumatic equipment and tools, it is important to remove moisture from the air to prevent corrosion and clogging of valves and nozzles. A refrigerated dryer ensures that the compressed air is clean and dry, improving the reliability and efficiency of pneumatic equipment.
In summary, refrigerated dryers play a significant role in many industries and applications by ensuring that the air used in processes or for equipment operation is dry and free from moisture, contributing to maintaining reliability, product quality, and efficiency.
